below. If you are in doubt, contact an authorized

• Disconnect the plug from the supply.
• Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely;
a plug with bared copper conductors is
dangerous if engaged in a live socket outlet.
• Only fit 13 Amperes BS1363A approved plugs
fitted with the correctly rated fuse (1).
• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked
at the connection points of most good quality
plugs. Attach the wires to their respective points
in the plug (see below). Brown is for Live (L) (2)
and Blue is for Neutral (N) (4).
• Before replacing the top cover of the mains plug
ensure that the cable restraint (3) is holding
the outer sheath of the cable firmly and that the
two leads are correctly fixed at the terminal
screws.
Never use a light socket.
Never connect the live (L) or neutral (N)
wires to the earth pin marked E or
Using an extension cable

Battery pack (fig. A & B)
Charging the battery pack (fig. B)
When charging the battery pack for the first time,
or after prolonged storage, it will only accept
an 80% charge. After several charge and discharge
cycles, the battery pack will attain full capacity.
Always check the mains prior to charging the battery
pack. If the mains is functioning but the battery pack
does not charge, take your charger to an authorised
D WALT repair agent. Whilst charging, the charger
E
and the battery pack may become warm to touch.
This is a normal condition and does not indicate
a problem.
Do not charge the battery pack at
ambient temperatures < 4 °C or > 40 °C.
Recommended charging temperature:
approx. 24 °C.
• To charge the battery pack (9), insert it into
the charger (11) as shown and plug in
the charger. Be sure that the battery pack is fully
seated in the charger. The red charging indicator
(12) will blink. After approx. 1 hour, it will stop
blinking and remain on. The battery pack is now
fully charged. The battery pack can be removed
at any time or left in the connected charger for
a longer period of time (with a maximum of
.
14 days).
Inserting and removing the battery pack
• Insert the battery pack into the grip until it clicks
in place.
• To remove the battery pack, press the two
release buttons (10) simultaneously and pull the
pack out of the grip.
Battery cap (fig. B)
A protective cap is supplied to cover the contacts
of a detached battery pack. Without the protective
cap in place, loose metal objects could short circuit
the contacts, causing a fire hazard and damaging
the battery pack.
• Take off the protective cap (13) before placing
the battery pack (9) in the charger or tool.
• Place the protective cap over the contacts
immediately after removing the battery pack from
the charger or tool.
